Which way does your incision go?

I am having an open RNY on 8/25...I have learned that my Dr. is now making the incision more twords the side ....instead of like up and down between the belly button and breast....I havent had a chance to talk to him as of yet to find out why he does this....Do any of you have your incision to the side?...if so....why do they do it that way?....is the healing time a little faster?....any input on this would be great! :o)
